My how time flies! Its been over 2 yrs since we’ve communicated. It’s great 2 hear you’re now a Buddhist minister. I’ve always wondered if a San Jose kid would become a minister. Gives me hope & encouragement that SJ Betsuin can teach and reach young people about Shin Buddhism.

I believe you were about the same age as my son Kelvin (or maybe it was Kimi?). They both still live in (the) Bay Area. I, on the other hand, have retired 2 the Central Cal coast (Los Osos, CA) in 2013.
